    The first part is talking about per blade... the 2nd part is talking about total (40x4GB DIMMs since there are 10 blades... each getting 4 DIMMs).

    Remember, usually only a few people max use a computer, and just one person at a time. While a server has HUNDREDS of us trying to access it every second, with mySQL queries in the thousands!!!!

    No, I want to load the page. No, my turn!! Ack!! I'm first!! Excuse me, ladies first....and then it's slow for all of us and gives us the grrrr errors!!!!!

    I'm guessing atleast one million different people have loaded a page off Shawns server atleast once since he set the current one up!!!! (Including all the tools stuff.)

    I am very much satisfied with my machine right now, it may sound like a 1940 machine after you hear the Shawns server config, but works like a horse for me.

    LMFAO :D :D

    Well, It may sound like obsolete but, the point is its not a server its a workstation, and kinda powerful for a workstation.

    Nice...... Congratz.

    I like that Equalizer, even i was planning to buy one for my office. I did not read the full desciption but i guess this the same thing which allows you to run two Internet Connections on one computer/server.
    I hate downtime.

    No, it doesn't bind multiple connections. It's a front-end load balancer. For example, you could have 10 web servers serving requests, and all the http request go through the load balancer. The load balancer decides which physical server to route the request to (typically based on what web server is under the least load and is available for requests).
